‘Everything from chip to ship’: PM Modi calls for boost to Atmanirbhar Bharat
**PM Modi Calls for Boost to Indigenous Production, Inaugurates Uttar Pradesh International Trade Show-2025**
Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday emphasized the need for a significant boost to indigenous production across sectors, stating that the government stands shoulder-to-shoulder with stakeholders in this endeavor. He highlighted the importance of focusing on becoming a ‘Swadeshi’ economy in India’s upcoming developmental journey, according to a report by news agency ANI.
PM Modi inaugurated the Uttar Pradesh International Trade Show-2025 (UPITS-2025), an event aimed at promoting innovation, integration, and internationalisation. Addressing the gathering, the Prime Minister noted that the government has removed numerous unnecessary compliances to foster business growth in the country.
“The government is putting a strong emphasis on Make in India manufacturing. We want everything from chip to ship to be manufactured in India. To achieve this, we are focusing on your ease of doing business. The government abolished more than 40,000 compliances, and more than a thousand laws were decriminalised. We are standing with you shoulder-to-shoulder,” PM Modi said, addressing business leaders and traders present at the event.
He further stated that despite global disruptions and uncertainties, India’s growth remains attractive. “Disruptions don’t hinder us. Even in challenging circumstances, we look for new directions. Amid all these disruptions, India is strengthening the foundations for the decades to come. Our resolve and mantra is Atmanirbhar Bharat. Nothing can be more helpless than being dependent on others. The more a country stays dependent on others, the more its growth is compromised,” he added.
The Prime Minister also stressed the importance of maintaining the quality of indigenously produced goods. “Every citizen is adopting Swadeshi. ‘Garv se kaho hum Swadeshi hai’—our traders must proudly adopt this mantra,” he urged.
Highlighting the need for innovation, PM Modi called for the creation of an ecosystem with special emphasis on Swadeshi designs. “In the research sector, private investments will have to come forward. Without innovation, the world stops, businesses halt,” he said.
